create new form
 

Using MS Office 2003 with Windows XP.
I'm creating a series of new email messages in Outlook that I would like to
save as forms. I would like to do this without having to turn off MS Word as
the email editor every time I create a new form.

When Word was turned off as the editor I would create the forms by starting
a new mail message, adding everything I wanted then hitting
Tools/Forms/Publish Form. However I can't create forms in this way when Word
is turned on as the email editor.

I thought that the solution might be to add the Tools/Forms/Publish Form
menu button to the new mail messages toolbar but I can't find how to do that
- and maybe it isn't even possible.

I tried using the Design Form feature but I can't enter the distribution
list in the BCC field or a message in the body of the email in Design Form
mode.

Any ideas?
